Lies That Cu t Like Knives A heart A heart is what you lack There’d be no reason to stay And your soul So beg all you can Your soul is pitch black And cry all your tears And rough as coal You won’t hurt me anymore You put on a show That I’ve made clear To hide your thieving plot And the funny thing is And my heart is what you stole Now you’re being sincere You played my head You pushed me away Like it was a Nintendo game With your devious ploys To ruin my life And you lead me on Was your ultimate aim With your incredible looks Your lies took me captive And to put it succinctly Like a criminal with a hostage And I’m being quite honest But now I’m free from your trap “Now that you can’t have me And the scars from your lies You suddenly want me” Have faded away I’ve moved on with my life - Michael Dombrowski
